COUNTY OF ANOKA <br />Office of the County 6oaro of Commissioners <br />COURT HOUSE ANOKA. MINNESOTA 55303 421.4760 <br />March 6, 1987 <br />DAN ERHART • CNAI\MAN <br />Ceu"W MWWO N Ca""..is,awn <br />The Honorable Cary Reimann <br />Mayor, City of Ramsey <br />18008 Waco Street N.W. <br />Anoka, MN 55303 <br />Dear Mayor Reimann: <br />Thank you for informing me about the public hearing to be held by the Gateway North <br />Industrial Airport Zoning Board of the City of Ramsey on March llth. As Chairman <br />of. the Anoka County Board of Commissioners, I am requesting that the following <br />comments be included in the public record for the hearing. <br />The proposed Airport Zoning Ordinance includes a provision that prohibits the location <br />of "waste disposal sites" and 'sanitary landfills" within an area that includes Site <br />'P' in the Anoka County landfill Inventory. It appears that this provision in the <br />proposed ordinance may be in conflict with the Waste Management Act of 19B0, as <br />amended. The County is required to prepare an environmental impact statement, <br />which is currently in progress, on the three sites in its landfill inventory. One site <br />may be selected for development of a new landfill. <br />It should be pointed out that there are provisions in Minnesota State Statutes designed <br />to permit the comparative evaluation of sites in county landfill inventories. These <br />statutory provisions dictate that No county, city, or town land -use -control shall <br />permit development which has not been approved by the (Metropolitan) Council. nor <br />shall any county, city, or town sanction or approve any subdivision, permit, license, <br />or other authorization which would allow developmer.: to occur which has no: been <br />approved by the (Metropolitan) Council. The Council shall not approve actions which <br />would ieopardize the availability of a site for use as a soi+c waste facility." temprasls <br />adoed) <br />I appreciate this opportunity to comment on the proposed Airport Zoning Ordinance. <br />Thank you. <br />cc: Mr. Steve Keefe, Chairman <br />Metropolitan Council <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />EXHIBIT <br />tar. =mart <br />Chairman, Anoka County <br />Board of Commissioners <br />a_ cL <br />
